7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageUnfortunately, it's the only option in our town, so we’re stuck. The bullying policy here is ineffective; despite being in place, bullying is rampant, and the administration seems either unaware or indifferent to the problem. It’s almost as if sympathy is given to the bully, while the actual victim is treated as the problem for coming forward. My child has faced bullying, and the lack of support from the staff has been disheartening. A complete overhaul of the administration is necessary, starting with the assistant principal. It's frustrating to feel powerless in a situation that should prioritize the well-being and safety of our kids. I hope changes are made soon, but for now, this experience has been nothing short of disappointing.Parent Review8mo ago - Jared Eliot School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIt’s a very outdated school they have kids who go to school here who have some serious mental health issues you walk by them at the local park and they make these really strange noises like they really aren’t well. Hoping this post well help them to get the help they need maybe the school can put together some program for them. And the food in cafeteria is really poor.Other Review2y ago
